GOODY bags for people unexpectedly admitted to hospital will be handed out by Community Health Councils across North Wales.

The packs contain shampoo, soap, toothpaste and a comb and will be given to patients who arrive without any belongings.

They will be kept in ward areas for people admitted in emergencies.

Lynne Grundy, head of nursing, professional nursing and education said: “The nursing staff are delighted that they will be able to offer these bags to patients who are admitted unexpectedly with no toiletries and would like to thank the Community Health Councils for their generosity”.
